An Irish Christmas 2025: A Holiday Celebration Across California

The holiday season in California will sparkle this December when An Irish Christmas returns with a brand-new tour. Produced by Kerry Irish Productions, this award-winning show blends the traditions of Ireland with the magic of Christmas, offering audiences a heartwarming evening of music, dance, and storytelling. With tour stops from Visalia to San Diego, An Irish Christmas 2025 invites families and friends to celebrate the season together in an unforgettable way.
What is An Irish Christmas?
An Irish Christmas is more than a holiday concert. It is a living celebration of Ireland’s heritage, where cultural traditions are brought to life on stage. The show combines:
Irish dance: intricate footwork, hard-shoe rhythms, and breathtaking choreography performed by champion dancers.
Live music: traditional instruments including fiddle, uilleann pipes, flute, and accordion, performed by world-class musicians.
Storytelling: timeless tales of Irish holiday customs like butter churning, the Straw Boys, and the Day of the Wren.
Song: hauntingly beautiful harmonies that capture the joy and spirit of the season.
Critics have described the production as “genuinely astonishing… electric!” and “an overwhelming success filled with glorious music, dance, and plenty of Irish soul.”
